What else can I help you with?
What has been done about the issue of wind turbines?
These wind turbines that were once in farmlands have now been relocated out into nature (the middle of nowhere).
What is preventing wind power from being used now?
Cost, and the unsightliness of the turbines
How is wind energy used now?
wind is used everywhere! we use it to sail and we use wind turbines on farmland,mostly in rural areas.
What is wind generation?
- a wind turbine - The propellers or blades around a rotor turn when the wind blows against them, producing energy. This energy passes from the rotor to the main shaft, then spins the generator to create electricity. A tower approximately 100 feet in height holds the wind turbines to capture most energy coming from the wind. Wind turbines can produce electricity for a single building or home as well as distribute electricity through power grids
What could cause fear of wind turbines?
For me it is the fear of it coming apart and flying through the area I'm in causing severe harm..I also had a reoccurring dream as a child about them.they have always been frightening to me and are now more popular in my area : (
Are UK building more wind turbines?
We should be - given that we are now dependent on a huge pipeline coming from Russia to supply us with mains gas ! That supply is vulnerable to failure for many reasons - and we should have a contingency plan in place as an alternative. We should be prepared to sacrifice 'picture postcard' landscapes in favour of wind turbines. Sustainable power is more important than pretty scenery !
How are wind energy being used now?
Wind energy is being used to generate electricity by harnessing the power of wind through wind turbines. These turbines convert the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical power, which is then converted into electricity. Wind energy is considered a renewable and sustainable source of energy that can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on fossil fuels.
Is there wind mills used today in the US?
Yes in producing wind energy as a form of electricity. Some places now have whole hillsides with wind turbines/mills to produce electrical energy for the area.
Why is wind energy better to use than fossil fuels?
Wind energy is not better than water energy. They are both very similar in that they are: * free (after the initial cost of the turbines) * sustainable (they won't run out) * renewable (they are still there tomorrow even if we use them completely today) If there is no wind, then the wind turbines don't turn to provide electricity. This can happen quite often, unless the turbines are placed where the wind blows non-stop all year round. If there is no water, then the water turbines don't turn. This will happen only rarely if the turbines are placed in the best position. Using ocean waves and tides will be more reliable than rivers which can dry up in droughts.
Some argue that wind power should be use more than it is now what argument could someone make against the use of wind power?
It is expensive to build and maintain wind turbines. Where the wind is blowing is often not where the electricity is needed. The wind may not be blowing when there is a demand for electricity.
Some argue that wind power should be used more than it is now. What argument could someone make against the use of wind power?
It can only be used in windy parts of the country.
Do wind turbines spin fast or slow in light winds than old windmills did?
yes or no you answer think about it losers ok now get the hell out of my life:)
